Sierra Wireless recently introduced its latest HL Series LPWA module, the HL7900, with focus on low power requirements and support for 3GPP’s latest 5G standards. This new module features the Altair ALT1350 chipset from Sony, and claims
to be the first cellular chipset to support unlicensed spectrum communications protocols, as well as satellite connectivity, enabling hybrid connectivity and advanced architecture and setting a new bar in ultra-low power consumption. Compared to current generation modules, the optimised standby mode (eDRX)can reduce power consumption by up to 80% for some use cases, increasing expected battery lifetime by a factor of 4.

The HL7900 LPWA further extends the existing HL78 LPWA module family by offering the best available battery life, enhanced security and sub-GHz and 2.4GHz low power protocol integrated radios, providing a selection of connectivity options for a flexible customer offering and reduced cost. It supports 3GPP Releases 15, 16 and 17 for LTE-M/NB-IoT.

From a cellular industry perspective, highlights from the report are listed below:

• The availability of 5G services continues to grow rapidly, with the level of coverage provided outside of premises by at least one Mobile Network Operator (MNO) rising from 42-57% in 2021 (across a range covering Very High and High Confidence) to 67-77% in 2022.
• Ofcom’s analysis of MNO 5G predictions indicates that Three has the most extensive 5G coverage outside premises at our ‘High Confidence’ level, at 58%; BT EE retains the most coverage at our ‘Very High Confidence’ level, reaching outside 45% of premises.
• 4G continues to carry the majority of mobile data traffic (accounting for 87% of total data traffic), with 4G coverage from at least one MNOs reaching 92% of UK landmass.
• Mobile traffic continues to grow, though we have seen slower growth this year, with traffic levels increasing c.27% year on year, compared with a 37% rise between 2020 and 2021. However, it is too early to determine if vo this represents a trend.
• Data traffic carried over 5G has increased more rapidly, rising from 3% of all traffic in 2021 to over 9% this year, generated from a device pool which now includes c. 20% 5G capable handsets.
• Ofcom sees continued evolution in non-consumer connectivity, with growth in private networks offered by MNOs, and by other players. Internet of Things (IoT) traffic also rose significantly, with a 20% growth in MNOs’ IoT traffic.

Vodafone, EE and 3 have announced dates for demising their 3G networks over the next two years. No such dates have been announced for 2G networks. The estimated number of devices dependent on 2G/3G has been increased to 5.5 million. There is an expectation that devices that are reliant on 3G networks for voice traffic will fall back to 2G as 3G is withdrawn.

Sierra Wireless’ new Octave edge data orchestration solution has been successfully connected with Microsoft Azure IoT Central. Once in production, the solution will simplify and accelerate the process of getting edge data to the cloud, enabling enterprises to achieve the value of IoT for the industry 4.0 world. In addition, Sierra Wireless intends to migrate its existing cloud infrastructure from AWS to utilize Azure’s full complement of cloud services.

Azure IoT Central is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution that lets customers build and deploy production-grade IoT applications in hours without cloud computing experience or specialized skills. Octave merges edge devices, network, and cloud APIs into a single platform that securely extracts, orchestrates and acts on data from remote assets at the edge to the cloud. The integration will enable customers to focus on building their business rather than reinventing technical infrastructure, which dramatically reduces costs and development time from several months to days. 

Sierra Wireless Octave is currently in preview with lead customers. For more information and to apply for the preview program, click here.
